Laube (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against Miami. Laube fumbled his first -- and so far only -- NFL carry against Pittsburgh in Week 6 and hasn't taken the field since. Las Vegas' running game ranks dead last in the NFL with 76.9 yards per game on the campaign, but Laube remains firmly behind Alexander Mattison, Zamir White and Ameer Abdullah on the running back depth chart. There's certainly a chance the Raiders will eventually give Laube a chance to show what he can do given the team's 2-7 record heading into Week 11.

Laube (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against Miami. Laube fumbled his first -- and so far only -- NFL carry against Pittsburgh in Week 6 and hasn't taken the field since. Las Vegas' running game ranks dead last in the NFL with 76.9 yards per game on the campaign, but Laube remains firmly behind Alexander Mattison, Zamir White and Ameer Abdullah on the running back depth chart. There's certainly a chance the Raiders will eventually give Laube a chance to show what he can do given the team's 2-7 record heading into Week 11.
Laube (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams. Laube has played in the Raiders' last three games, but he lost a fumble on his first NFL rushing attempt in Week 6 against the Steelers. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 8 against the Chiefs on Oct. 27. The Raiders will go with a three-man backfield of Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah for Sunday's contest.
Laube lost a fumble on his only carry in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. The first offensive snap and rushing attempt of Laube's young NFL career resulted in a fumble, as the sixth-round rookie had the ball punched out of his arms by Steelers All-Pro T.J. Watt late in the second quarter. Laube didn't see the field on offense for the remainder of the contest, and with fellow running back Zamir White (groin) possibly returning against the Rams in Week 7, Laube could remain limited to a special teams role.
Laube (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Ravens. Laube will be a healthy scratch for the second week in a row to kick off the 2024 campaign. The rookie sixth-round selection remains behind Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah on the team's positional depth chart and may need any injury to occur to make his NFL debut.
Laube is inactive for Sunday's season opener against the Chargers. Laube will thus need to wait to make his NFL regular-season debut. With the 2024 sixth-rounder not in uniform Sunday, Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah are available to handle the Raiders' Week 1 backfield duties.
Laube rushed three times for 12 yards and added one catch on one target for six yards in Friday's preseason tie with the 49ers. He also lost a fumble and returned a kickoff for 24 yards. Las Vegas sat most of its starters in the contest, and Laube was thus handed the start. He ripped off a nice eight-yard run on his second carry but ended his day on a sour note, losing a fumble following a six-yard reception late in the first quarter. That Laube suited up Friday while Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah and Alexander Mattison all sat could be a hint about where he stands in the running back pecking order. He could see more work in the return game than as a ball carrier in his rookie campaign.
Laube rushed four times for eight yards and was targeted once in the passing game during the Raiders' preseason opener against the Vikings. He also returned one kickoff for 16 yards. Laube didn't tote the rock until the second half in his NFL preseason debut, but he took his first carry for 13 yards before struggling to find much space on each of his final three rushes. Although he left his maiden tilt without a reception, the versatile sixth-round rookie out of New Hampshire continues to be lauded for his pass-catching chops as he looks to carve out a meaningful role in the backfield behind starter Zamir White.
Laube has been making a case to earn some playing time early on this coming season, according to Vic Tafur of The Athletic. With that possibility in mind, offensive coordinator Luke Getsy relayed that the rookie sixth-rounder out of New Hampshire is "off to a great start," while head coach Antonio Pierce noted of Laube on Friday, "That dude is special. I like him...and he's gritty. he's a gritty RB. One thing - he surprises you with his speed." That said, Tafur acknowledges that at this stage Laube slots in behind fellow backs Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah. However, if Laube continue to impress this summer, the 5-foot-10, 208-pounder may be able to carve out a third-down role and possibly contribute as a kick returner in 2024.
